Looks like Theresa has been getting a little rough with Senator Kerry.
I told the police that too, when the missus was beating on me. "I'm clumsy, I ran into the door." "I got these fist sized bruises playing hockey." Uh huh.

MIA no more
I thought Kenn Blanchard had quit gun blogging, so I never clicked on his blog link anymore. Or that he rarely posted, at the most. Apparently I was mistaken. He is still there and quite active.
He is also a Marylander. Like me. And FALFenix.
Anyway, I added Rev. Blanchard back to the list. Deleted Progun Progressive, Other Side of Kim, and Free Market Fairy Tales because they are inactive and pretty much gone, sadly. Trying to keep the link list semi static. Lemme know if there are dead-dead links on here and you are of a mind to hep. I don't wanna just lead folks astray to link farms.
Thanks.

Prez
Paul, Romney, Gingrich, Santorum. Four! Easy to keep track in your head.
Of those? Which would I choose. Gah! Hard to vote for any of the four.
Which is worst for second amendment issues?
Worst is Paul, methinks. He'd eliminate all Federal Laws, which he can't (idiocy), and send it to the states, ignoring the 14th and 2nd Amendments and his duty as president to both. He's said the Federal Government should take no part in gun laws. Fine. That I like. But he'd also do nothing about what states pass, it not being the Federal government's job, in his eyes, to stick its nose in that either. A bunch of states would pass draconian anti-gun stuff. There would be roadblocks on rt 81 between Virginia and Pennsylvania, and lots of out of staters would go to MD jail. "C'mon vote for Paul, TBolt. It'll be a fun four years." No. No it won't. I'd campaign for and vote for Obama ahead of Paul. For this and many other issues. He's all for people being armed but he'd kill the right in his ineffectual ignorance. Wish his son was most seasoned and running in his place.
Next worst is Romney. Mr. Assault Weapons Ban his own self. A choice between a statist liberal Democrat that hates individual freedom and Obama? I'll vote lower down the ticket and leave the top blank.
Santorum? Joke. Sorry pal, you are forever a sex-act residue. Plus your primary purpose in life is "Go Team Jesus" and you concentrate on gonadal politics too much. Smaller gov't, less taxes, controlled borders, punched hippies, fewer regulations... THEN consider the social issues. I really don't give a hang for what you care oh so deeply about.
Newt? Talks the best game on the 2nd Amendment, but I know Newt. When he is good he is very very good and when he is bad he is horrid. And you never know which Newt you will get, day to day, minute to minute.
Perry was best on the 2nd Amendment, but bad on everything else aside from being Governor of the largest and most successful state in the Union. (I don't count california anymore until is creeps back into 'not a basket case' territory.) And Perry is gone.
Gah. Where is Fred Thompson when you need him?
But I think Bore Patch is right, even with the MSM in his corner working his campaign Obama could be beaten by Mussolini's corpse, dodge Italian birth certificate and all. Even that whole "being dead 66 years" thing. But just because Mussolini's corpse can beat Obama doesn't mean we need to RUN Mussolini's corpse against him. And yet, the GOP is. Yay.
My prediction? Romney takes the Oath in January. Not happy about it.

The Walking Dead
On AMC...
I think the purpose of the show was to kill off the latest zombie fad once and for all. By being a HORRIBLE television show. About Zombies. One decent episode in 7 doesn't absolve them of their sins for making a deodorant free soap opera.
Have you noticed less zombie content of late? The show sucked all the oxygen out of the room and smothered it. Now we have a room of asphyxiated zombie-fan corpses. Or summat...

Shotguns
While I don't like to use them against Zombies, I do like them for semi suburban deer hunting.
This is kinda odd... I own several Remington Model 11's all of a sudden. They'd grown steadily, at $200 a pop or less. I get one as a parts gun, then another falls in my lap, then another. I'm not trying to get just this one type, it just worked out that way.
Thus... The only shotgun I own is a 12 gauge Model 11, and lots of backups.
I was thinking of getting a pump gun, but I have so MANY Model 11s, what's the point?
They are like commodities around here. Like salt shakers. Everyone has a bunch of those. So many they might lost track of what they have.
I am middling in it's use. I'm not rubbish, but I don't write home about my mad clay busting skills. I'd do more of it if there was a skeet/trap center nearer by, and thus be better at it. My Boy Scout meetings as a kid were at a IWLA where we'd arrive and 6 folks would be powdering orange disks for another half hour under the lights. Looked fun but that place is a bit outside my driving range these days.

Yager
So I am reading the autobiography of Buffalo Bill Cody. And I've already stumbled upon interesting gun content, and it's not even 1860, and Bill is not even 18 years old.
He hired on on ox wagon trains and they occasionally had to fight off Indians or Mormons. To do this they were armed with Colt pistols (often 2 each) and a Mississippi Yager that fired a ball and two buck shot.
A HA! Something to look into. I figured Yager was the Americanization of the German word Jaeger (Jäger). A word I knew as 'Hunter'. So I figured it was a rifle. With that in mind I found the entry for the M1841 Mississippi Rifle, made at Harper's Ferry. It was a percussion cap front stuffer. It was named Mississippi after a colonel of a Mississippi Militia put his regiment to good use armed with these rifles in the Mexican war.
The colonel, if you didn't click the link, was Jeff Davis. Yes THAT Jeff Davis.
"The Mississippi Rifle was sometimes referred to as a "yagger" rifle, due to its smaller size and its similarity to the German Jäger rifles."
I don't know what Cody and his compatriots hoped to achieve with a ball and 2 shot loaded. A perception of greater lethality, at the least. Sorta like the Taurus Judge. Or maybe there is some advantage I don't see.

Of COURSE this intrigues
I already like XDs, I've been hankering for a single stack polymer I'd like, and then Springfield comes out with this: XDS. It's not even up on the Springfield website, yet (as of Monday night).
This gun is right in my wheelhouse. .45ACP goodness, even.
Thanks SHOT Show reporters.
It's like they read my mind. Of course I'll have to try it first.
The only thing that would have made it perfect would be a 1911 magazine. But it won't be that, certainly. Another detail is, I'd rather have 7+1 than 5+1 magazines, but that's not as big a deal to me as for most.
It all depends on how I shoot it, how it feels to me. We shall see.

SOPA-PIPA? No.
http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/English_Wikipedia_anti-SOPA_blackout
No content for you today. Don't let power hungry gummint types break the internet with the misnamed "Stop Online Piracy Act" or "Protect IP Act". Tell yer Congresscritter that they need to not just DO something, sit there!
They will tell you, "oh we killed that bill, and it wasn't what you thought" Doesn't matter. Shouldn't be sticking your nose in it anyway, petty tinpot potentates. So. We don't need any Zombie bill coming back from the dead. Kill it, dismember it, burn the parts in widely separate locations, then scatter the ashes in the lava shadow of active volcanoes.

Corruption and Racism
So, all gun control is based on political cronyism and racism? Ok. That's probably something we should remember and remind Leftist types that to support gun control is to commit their religion's biggest sin: hypocrisy.
The grandaddy of them all, New York's Sullivan Act. Remember Gun Control isn't about guns, it's about control. And that control is usually over country hillbillies and swarthy types. 'Threats' to good upstanding city folk...

Zombie Prom
A librarian I know sent me a link to Zombie Prom Dress.
I'm looking closely at the pattern and the zombies are all pinup or nose art quality. Plus the B-17 outline. So it's WWII era aviation zombie prom party dress. Jitterbuggable.

Ok...
I can see the inspirations on this propgun, but how is that supposed to, you know, work? You can prolly embiggenate by clicking.
I can see the AK peeking though. Is that part of an M60 dust cover over the bass ackward AK dust cover? It's supposed to be from Waterworld, maybe? But gun is not in the IMFDB entry.

What a Peach
Truly an angelic woman.
Debbie Wasserman Schultz is STILL linking the Tea Party with scizophrenic Tuscon murderer Jared Lochner. Have you no shame, lady? At long last, have you no shame. How dare you.
Mental game for you Debbie. Let's say he hadn't gotten all murder crazy but stepped back from that abyss. Lochner is still him, just not in a killing mood. What is the most likely scenario? What do you picture someone with his mental problems, youth, and known presonality doing? Would he:
A) Go to town hall meetings, raise his voice, and make politiicans like yourself uncomfortable like the Tea Partiers did?
or...
B) He'd bum money off his parents, travel to Manhattan, live in a nasty tent in a public park with people just like him, get a nasty case of scabies, and poop on police cars?
Also, which would you rather be associated with, A or B?
Hush Debbie. You're acting moronical.

Think this will annoy...
Think this will annoy...the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave?
Approaching this from the conservative libertarian angle, with an eye toward 2nd Amendment rights, (it's a gun blog) Mittens is no great shakes. He supports none of those things. He is no Fred! Thompson. He won't shrink Federal bloat, get the fiscal house in order, cut regulations, or try to simplify taxes. He'll sign any bill that sticks it's nose into my bidness, and any gun control law that comes across his desk, is my guess. I could not give a hang about his religion or much of a hang over what flavor of gonadal politics he favors. I count on Mitt to nominate a succession of Souters.
But, like Borepatch, I think Benito Mussolini, dodgy Italian birth certificate, execrable politics, and being a, ya know, corpse and all... Il Duce could beat Obama in November. But I don't like it. I have the luxury of not voting for anyone. Mitt could carry 400+ electoral votes. None of those will be from Maryland. At least 66% of the popular vote will go with Barry here.

Speaking of the Old Empire
Upon which the sun never set. When Britain used to be known as GREAT Britain...
There is a new comic book coming out, set in Britain at the beginning of the 20th Century. Most of the lower classes have been infected with zombism, and the upper crust better are willingly becoming vampires to avoid the 'poor person's disease.'
Yick. Class warfare. Tedious.
Anyway it's called the New Deadwardians.
Heh! Get it?

Officer Harless
The feloniously abusive Canton OH police officer has been finally fired. Next stop, if there is any justice: Jail. After that: HELL!
